Heart 2 Heart Ribbon Challenge

Tracy — Mon, 03 May 2010 01:46:37 +0000

I’m getting in under the gun again on the deadline but I’ve been having problems getting my picture transferred over to my computer. I need a new card reader I guess! Grr …

Anyway, this weeks Heart 2 Heart Challenge was a ribbon challenge. The challenge was to use at least 2 different ribbons on your card.

I managed to use 3. In my card I used ribbon has my background “paper”. Then I added a little piece of green ribbon behind the clear CTMH button. The paper flower is also CTMH and the stamped image is from the CTMH Treasures set!

Enjoy!

Heart 2 Heart Sketch Challenge

This week the Challenge over at H2H is Let’s Get Sketchy….

I followed it generally pretty close!

My official entry is this one:

The only thing about it that’s not CTMH is the kraft card base.
CTMH Cranberry CS
CTMH Cranberry Grosgrain Ribbon
CTMH Cupcake Sprinkles Stamp Set
CTMH Red Sparkles
CTMH Patterned Paper (very old, and very retired)

But I was on a roll and was really liking the monochromatic look of this card so kept making different versions of the same card:

Enjoy!

Heart 2 Heart Challenge

Tracy — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 01:47:53 +0000

Hi everyone … it’s been awhile, a long while, since I posted artwork!

But I came across this new CTMH Blog yesterday and was inspired to make a card! I have a lot of stuff to actually post, I just don’t have pictures of it all yet! Oops! So, I’ll start here.

This new blog is called Heart 2 Heart Challenges. You should definitely check it out!

This is my submission for the current challenge (just getting in under the 7pm PST/10pm EST deadline buzzer).

I made the background piece out of Chocolate and did the faux croc leather technique. I also used the CTMH stamp set Treasures and CTMH bling. The other colors are Sunflower and Sweet Leaf – the only non-CTMH piece is the wide ribbon!

Enjoy!

Flower Pot Pocket Card

Tracy — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 03:49:54 +0000

I am on permanent “commission” with my Dad to make 3 cards a year for him to give my Mom (Valentine’s Day, Birthday and Anniversary). Yesterday was Mom’s birthday and all of us spent the day in the Tri-Cities going to the Benton Franklin County Fair and Rodeo. More on the rodeo in a later post!

I saw this card on the Split Coast Stampers site and thought it was a good card to make for Dad. The tutorial for it is really easy and located here.

I used the CTMH Bella papers and colored paper flowers. In fact, everything on this card is CTMH, down to the rub ons on the front of the pot!

Enjoy!

That’s Amore Thank You

Amanda – I have 1 hour and 38 minutes before this week is over, so I’ve held my bargain so far! (PS – My week goes from Monday-Sunday).

I actually MADE this card TODAY! And it came fairly easy to boot! Crazy.

I used the That’s Amore paper pack from CTMH and the stamps are CTMH as well!

Enjoy!

Love Your Life

Here’s an ATC I put together tonight. This is the new Whoops-a-Daisy paper from CTMH. It’s really not in my comfort zone – being all bright and all – but I made myself use it, and it turned out good I think. I also used the June SOTM and some Dew Drops.

Enjoy!

Paper Bag Book

Tracy — Sat, 17 May 2008 22:31:54 +0000

I made this paper bag book using some of my all time favorite (albeit, retired) CTMH paper. I haven’t decided what I’m going to do with it yet, but I love how it all turned out! Enjoy!

Boom Di Ada, Coloring and New Loot

Tracy — Thu, 08 May 2008 05:03:46 +0000

I love a lot of the new things in the new CTMH catalog – my favorite papers by far are the Boom Di Ada papers. Plus with the new ric rac … so good! This card also uses the Flower Dimensional Elements. I have the scalloped Stampin’ Up punch and it fits one the dimensional flowers almost perfectly!! I had to do a little sanding, but other than that, it works great.

I’ve also been spending some time coloring my new Nellie stamps! Love these little things!!!

And finally, this has been a great mail week for me! I got some new cuttlebug folders, and my nestabilities!!!

Happy Everything

I saw a card this weekend (store bought) that look similar to this one. I really liked the look of it.

It was quick and easy to make, and best of all, I have a purpose for it!
